Pronunciation
Noun
pMOSFET (plural pMOSFETs)
- (electronics, semiconductors) A type of metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) that utilizes an p-type channel, conducting when a voltage voltage below a threshold is applied to the gate relative to the source. It is commonly used in complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) technology alongside nMOSFETs.
